title: Bis(1,10-phenanthroline-κ(2) N,N')(sulfato-κO)zinc(II) propane-1,2-diol monosolvate.
abstract: In the title compound, [Zn(SO4)(C12H8N2)2]·C3H8O2, the Zn(II) ion is in a distorted square-pyramidal coordination environment composed of four N atoms from two chelating 1,10-phenanthroline ligands and one O atom from a monodentate sulfate ligand. The Zn(II) ion lies on a twofold rotation axis. The sulfate ligand and propane-1,2-diol mol-ecules are disordered across the twofold rotation axis. The dihedral angle between the two chelating N2C2 groups is 83.26 (13)°. In the crystal, the complex mol-ecule and the propane-1,2-diol mol-ecule are connected through a pair of O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds.
